GLImPSES OF NOTED MEN.
Edwin Booths Speech.
uro,,, +ba Con Franc;roo rbronicIa I

[From the San Francisco Chronicle
Mr.. Booth is a NEST retiring and timid
man about society. He is the only actor L
ever met who is embarrassed at compli-
ment. Most actors, when you tell them how
well they do, Immediately proceed to explain
to you that they are really greater actors than
you think they are. Mr.. Booth seems to be
possessed by the unique conviction that
Shakespeare meant what he wrote, and one
of his main breads is of the man who wants
to knew whether Hamlet was really insane
or only feigning. He was speaking of his
reception at the Baldwin on the first night.
"You saw nay reception on Monday night"
he said, 'and II couldn't have said Thank
you before that curtain"
He confessed to making one speech, bat
the result was not very encouraging. Some
years ago he went with his company to a
place to play one night. He had been spec
tally requested not to play "Hanlet," as the
people had seen him in that the year before
and they wanted something else. When they
assembled at the theater they found the bag
gage had gone astray and the costumes for
sfRichelieu" had not arrived. They must
play something else, and the only thing they
could do was to make up q bill of farce
and three acts of Hamlet" which were ca
siest to put on. Mr.. Booth went out before
the curtain and made little speech.
"Thsy listened to me-" he said. ''and
| when I got through man in the front OF
| the orchestra looked up and said: All
| right, give us Hamlet 1 went off feeling
very proud of my speech. had done bril-
| liantly thought. just then I heard some
| body talking in front of the curtain. What's
| this, said to myself. Somebody objecting
"a row-and I grew excessively nervous
| Just then one of the men came in from the
| front part of the house. Whats that
Who's that talking out therep ooh, it's al
right. It's the proprietor. They didn't heal
| word you said, and he is explaining to then
that you've changed the bill"

Court Of COMmon Pleas-Judge stud

ley.
Judge Studley yesterday rendered judg-
ment in the case of Chester A. Brown VS..
Dennis Daley for the defendant to recover
his costs. All the parties and witnesses re-
side in Guilford, and the case was originally
brought before Edison S. Bishop, Eco, as
justice of the peace last July. The plaintiff
and defendant own adjoining tracks of land,
and the plaintiff alleged that the defendant
had committed trespass by driving wagon
over the land of the plaintiff on several &C.
casions. and by moving the division fence.
The defendant claimed that he had only used
one of two rights of way across the plaintiffs
land, as he was legally entitled to do, having
used both rights of way adversely for more
than fifteen years. He also denied changing
before Justice Bishop last summer, the
trial being held in the town clerks Office.
After considering the case for two weeks
Justice Bishop rendered judgment for the
plaintiff to recover $25 and costs. From
this Judgment the defendant appealed to the
Court of Common Pleas and the case was
again tried before Judge Studley, who rem
dered judgment above stated, thus revers-
ing Justice Bishops decision. The case has
considerable interest among the
residents of Guilford and several we'll known
citizens of the town were witnesses. Judge
R. S. Pickett appeared for the plaintiff and
Gallagher and cleveland for the defendant.
